AASHTO Subcommittee on Rail Transportation Sept. 18, 2012Kevin Chesnik
What is SHRP2? Save lives. Save money. Save time. • $218 million, federally funded research program to address critical transportation challenges: • Making highways safer • Fixing deteriorating infrastructure • Reducing congestion • Collaborative effort of AASHTO, FHWA, and TRB • Aims to advance innovative ways to plan, renew, operate, and improve safety on the Nation's highways
Focus Areas Safety: fostering safer driving through analysis of driver, roadway and vehicle factors in crashes, near crashes, and ordinary driving Renewal: maintaining and repairing the deteriorating infrastructure using already-available resources Reliability: managing non-recurring events to create more predictable travel times Capacity: building a highway system that creates minimum disruption and meets the environmental, and economic needs of the community.
Research to Implementation Implementation Research and Development
Efforts are Collaborative • Implementation is cooperative. It engages: • AASHTO • FHWA • SHRP2/TRB staff • States are the customers of AASHTO implementation • FHWA, TRB also serve locals, academia, MPOs
SHRP2 Plan of Action • Research (2007 - 2013) • 100+ research projects • Administered by TRB • Transition (Now through 2015) • Pilots and demonstrations • Testing and refinement of products emerging from research • Implementation (2012 - forward) • Partner agencies prioritize products for implementation • Selected products integrated into current transportation practices
